Creative. Interesting. Detailed descriptions.
From the way Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao strikes his fist into his opponent...
Down to the way he looks when he is already at rest.
Andrew Corsello did not just write who Manny is, but how he became who he is now and how he represents the Philippines and its people.
Corsello did not write just for the sake of writing and finishing an article; he knew how to communicate with people through his words.
Even those who don't know Manny will, I believe, still find his article interesting. By just reading his article, one can already have a clear picture of who Manny is.
A boxer. A politician. A singer. A God-fearing man. A family man. And a very curious one.
Or rather, not just simply see the picture, but become a part of it.
That's the magic words can do. That's the magic Corsello did. And that's the magic a very good writer can do.
Despite its length, no one can get bored, may he/she be a boxing fan or not, a Pacquiao fan or not.
It doesn't matter. Why?
As Corsello always phrased it...
Because he is Pacquiao.
